Dear Ms O'Connor,
I would find it an honor to volunteer at the New York Historical Society, not only because of its long distinguished history but also because of its tireless commitment to equality and social justice.
I am now retired but had worked for several years as a social worker in an outreach position in several community based clinics in Brooklyn. This job involved extending the clinics' services to businesses and outer clinics.
I hope that you can make use of my
experience while doing some outreach for
your organization.
Best wishes in your finding several acceptable applicants.
Sinceraly,
Gerald Sammartano
